The table has been prepared so that the left half of the table (from A to B) is frictionless. The right half (from B to C) has a non-zero coefficient of friction equal to µ. The hand pushes the block the full distance from A to C using a constant force of 5 N. The block starts off at rest at point A and comes to a stop when it reaches point C. The distance from A to B is 0.5 m and the distance from B to C is also 0.5 m. We will consider the block by itself as our system so all forces on the block are external.

At the instant of its launch, the block is moving uphill at 4.00 m/s. Hector observes as the block travels a distance of 50.0 cm uphill on the ramp. In the following, consider the period of time during which the block moves uphill through the 50.0 cm distance shown in the Figure. For simplicity, assume that g = 9.80 m/2. d (50.0 cm) 4.00 m/s h 30°arrow_forward
